MRES.C.02 – Publication of research results
Course module MRES.C.02 “Publication of Research Results” is an obligation for graduation rather than a regular course module. This is why it does not contribute any ECTS units or grades to the student record. The outcome is a binary YES/NO that masks the final grade calculated from all the rest of the modules that carry ECTS units.
As stated in the MSc Program Study Regulation, research work towards the MSc thesis starts from day one, proceeds along all 3 academic semesters of the program and is culminated by the (required) publication of the results in relevant, internationally renowned journals or conference proceedings, as deemed suitable by the supervisor.
Students are expected to carry out innovative research, i.e., research that generates or employs new information/data (scientific measurements, publications or other material) or develops a novel approach or solution as compared to existing / conventional ones. This research is expected to produce a publication of its results. The requirement for at least one publication before graduation is set to support the general aim of the MSc program that is the development of advanced skills in research, in expression/communication, in the formulation of scientific hypotheses and in the interpretation and presentation of research results.
The publication must be co-authored by the student and his/her supervisor at least – and possibly by other researchers that contributed to this research, as decided by the supervisor. Acceptable publications are those in international refereed scientific journals or international refereed scientific conferences with proceedings and review in the full text of the paper. Publication sources must be accessible and renowned (indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, INSPEC, CROSSREF). For the student to meet this requirement, either a copy of the publication or a copy of the submitted manuscript along with the letter of acceptance, must be filed with the Secretariat by the supervisor.An indicative list of publications of student research results from a similar-structure MSc offered in Greek for Greek students by the same Department during 2018-2023 can be found here:
